Chat occurs on at gitter.im/dask/dask
for general conversation and gitter.im/dask/dev for developer conversation. Note that
because gitter chat is not searchable by future users we discourage usage
questions and bug reports on gitter and instead ask people to use Stack
Overflow or GitHub.

Weekly developer meeting usually happens at Thursday 4pm UTC (11am in New
York, 8am in Los Angeles, 12am in Beijing) at https://appear.in/dask-dev

We welcome usage questions and bug reports from all users, even those who are
new to using the project. There are a few things you can do to improve the
likelihood of quickly getting a good answer.

Ask questions in the right place. In particular we strongly prefer the use
of StackOverflow and Github issues over Gitter chat. Github and
StackOverflow are more easily searchable by future users and so is more
efficient for everyone’s time. Gitter chat is strictly reserved for
developer and community discussion.

Create a minimal example. It is ideal to create minimal, complete,
verifiable examples. This
significantly reduces the time that answerers spend understanding your
situation and so results in higher quality answers more quickly.
